I am 18-year old female and i have been experiencing throat pain, there’s small oranges bumps on the back of my throat, it hurts to sallow and my throat just looks red and swollen is also small patches on my tonsils.

Female | 18

You could have tonsillitis, a condition in which your tonsils become infected. It may be uneasy for you if your throat is red, swollen, and has small orange bumps and patches. Tonsillitis can be caused by viruses or bacteria. In more detail, the patient should follow the three instructions: drinking a lot of non-alcoholic fluids, sleeping more, and using over-the-counter analgesic medication that your healthcare provider recommended. The practice of gargling warm salty water will definitely sooth the pain as well. By that time the infection has not subsided; it can mean that you should see a physician for more care.

I am 20 year old female . I have a painless underarm lump that has been there for a year now. What should I do

Female | 20

If you have a painless lump in your armpit that doesn’t go away for about a year, it should be checked out. It might just be a harmless cyst, a swollen lymph node, or a kind of fat called lipoma. But we also need to make sure nothing more serious is going on. My advice is to see a healthcare provider who can take a look at it.

I have lots of pimples and acne on my face specifically in forehead, skin type oily

Male | 23

Acne on the forehead is commonly caused by oily skin. Symptoms of the condition are seen in the form of pimples and redness. The reason for this is usually the presence of acid, bacteria, and the clogging of pores. You can help by washing your, face daily with a gentle cleanser, keeping your hands away from your, face, and using non-comedogenic products.

I want to know about genital warts

Female | 25

Genital warts result from a virus which spreads via sex; they resemble tiny bumpy growths and may appear pink or flesh-colored, sometimes causing itchiness or pain. A dermatologist should be consulted for treatment; this could involve prescribing a cream or carrying out procedures to remove them. The use of protection during sexual activity can help prevent their transmission.

Does Sulfamethoxazole-Trimethoprim cure Chlamydia?

Male | 19

Sulfamethoxazole-trimethoprim also recognized as Bactrim is not usually used in treating chlamydia. This is because it is a bacteria that spreads through intimate contact. This may lead to painful urination, unusual discharge, and sometimes no signs at all. Normally, antibiotics such as azithromycin or doxycycline are used to cure chlamydia. If you suspect that you have the disease, it is important to get tested and treated so as to avoid any further complications.

i want to check my face is my face is healthy or fat

Male | 24

You want to figure out whether it is healthy or there is too much fat, then look for signs like puffiness, a double chin, or round cheeks. A situation like this may be caused by eating too many junk foods and not being physically active enough. To fix this, you can eat more fruits and vegetables, drink lots of water, and move with some activities such as walking, or dancing.

I am 25 years old female, i facing with very severe butt achne from last 5 years, it has been increasing due to prolonged sitting due to wfh, please suggest some otc medication or solution

Female | 25

It's a common issue when sweat and oils get trapped in our skin pores. Prolonged sitting can make it even worse. The best over-the-counter treatment is to use a mild cleanser with salicylic acid to shrink the pores. To that end, also, take breaks from sitting and keep the area clean and dry. Stay hydrated and wear loose, breathable clothing.

Skin atrophy is the thinning of the skin and it can happen for different reasons like aging, steroid abuse, or some medical conditions. Skin atrophy is the major issue and it is necessary to use gentle lotions and creams to keep your skin moisturized to solve it. Refrain from harsh chemicals and cover your skin from the sun. Eating a balanced meal full of vitamins and minerals can also help your skin. Always bear in mind that the major reason for taking good care of the skin is for the overall well-being of the body.

Consultation regarding premature grey hair

Female | 23

Premature gray hair occurs when your hair loses its natural color earlier than expected, often before the age of 30. You may notice gray hair becoming more common or see more gray strands than usual. The main cause is usually genetics, but factors like stress, poor diet, and certain medical conditions can also contribute. Maintaining a balanced diet, managing stress, and using hair products with vitamins can help support hair health and slow the graying process.

I got the cut from the barber trimmer is it the chance of getting hiv virus from that trimmer ?

Male | 21

You are very unlikely to get HIV from a barber trimmer. HIV is not spread by inanimate objects like trimmers but through fluids that carry the virus, such as blood. Look for symptoms such as fever or maybe pimples but always keep in mind the probability of this happening is extremely low.
